offset and limit
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HBASE-960
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-960
             Project: Hadoop HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: rest
    Affects Versions: 0.19.0
            Reporter: sishen
             Fix For: 0.19.0


The update column family operation in REST interface will overwrite the default 
metadata using the default value which is unexpected.  
We should use the column family to get the old value and then do update if 
requested by the users.  

Also, for non-default metadata value, such as "hbase.hregion.majorcompaction", 
we should still be enable to create/update it using REST interface.

For RowHandler, the user can request with offset and limit and get the rows.
